Hi everyone! Just thought I'd share some of the activities my Year 1 class have been doing with some of the stories in the The Story Tree. As we have been learning words and common phrases in different languages, I read some of the stories which come from all over the world to the children. They absolutely loved them. Some they knew, but others were quite new to them. Despite this (and due to the fact that we have read all of the stories several times!) the children join in during 'read aloud' sessions, and love retelling the stories through role play. We particularly liked Little Cock Feather Frock which is a Russian tale, and we now have a lovely display in our book corner. The children worked in groups to create the setting and characters of the story. They did this by painting, collage, coluring, etc. They also drew beautiful pictures of each character. I shall email pictures shortly. The CD that comes with the book is great too for whole class Speaking & Listening sessions or they can listen to the stories whenever they want in the book corner.
Look forward to seeing you soon,
D. Our Lady of Grace Infants.
